Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 599 Chapter 616: Restless Silla
When Fan Lihua was stationed in Tianshan, there was a turmoil in Chang'an. Li Shimin received a report from the Anxi Governor's Mansion, and Silla sent troops to conquer Baekje.

Baekje is actually a branch of the Wa Kingdom, because Silla has been enslaved by the Wa Kingdom for many years. Goguryeo was also destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, and Silla became active immediately, concentrating the whole country's troops, and annihilating Baekje with lightning speed.

If it was just to conquer Baekje, it would not be a big deal, but Silla was not very stable. When the army returned to the country, it went north and drove away the [-] Tang troops stationed in Pyongyang, occupying a large area of ​​Goguryeo. , directly to Datong River (Yalu River).At this time, the king of Silla was King Wuyeol Jin Chunqiu. He actually achieved the great unification of the entire Liaodong Peninsula. This made Jin very happy, but he was not so happy that he was dizzy. The established plan still had to be implemented. .

The so-called established plan is the plan that was originally formulated. You must know that such a big event was definitely not made by Jin Chunqiu on a whim, but a plan formulated after he discussed with his officials. I am very afraid. After all, Datang is too powerful. They are no different from ants in front of Datang. There are only [-] soldiers in the whole country. Dare to snatch Datang's territory, because they have gone through careful deliberation.

First of all, a piece of land as large as Goguryeo is very tempting to Silla. It has surpassed their original land of Silla. This is their motivation. Then, it is Datang's attitude. Losing territory, Datang must be unhappy. How unhappy is it? Park Ji-yong, the Prime Minister of Silla, deduced that even if the Tang people were unhappy, they would never be angry. After all, Goguryeo was a bitter cold place for the Tang Dynasty, and the people of the Tang Dynasty were not suitable for living in that land. , so that piece of land is tasteless to Datang and is of little use.

After Jin Chunqiu heard it, he felt that what Pu Zhiyong said was very reasonable. The next step was to find a way to calm Datang's anger, so they made a plan. Once Goguryeo was recaptured, they immediately sent envoys to bring credentials and a large amount of gold and silver. Jewelry went to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty to plead guilty to the Tang Emperor, and the letter of credence was written by Jin Chunqiu himself, with a very low posture, almost kneeling and licking.

In their view, Datang is a big country with a good face and loves fame. As long as the face makes them liveable, and a little economic compensation is added, Datang should not be held accountable for the loss of such a tasteless piece of land.

It is precisely because they have made plans and preparations in advance that their envoys came very quickly. They arrived in Chang'an before the memorial of the Anbei Protectorate. It is also a high official position in Silla.

After arriving in Chang'an, Pu Mingshun pretended to be a Tang caravan and lived in an inn. Since the Tang language was very popular in Silla, Pu Mingshun could speak Chinese fluently, so he did not reveal his identity.

When they learned that the memorial from Anbei Protectorate had arrived in Chang'an, they immediately changed into Silla costumes, moved into the Sifang Hall, and handed over a letter to Honglu Temple, requesting an interview with the Emperor Tang and presenting letters of credence.

Li Shimin was very unhappy about Silla's behavior. When he received the memorial from the Anxi Governor's Mansion yesterday, he had already scolded Jin Chunqiu and planned to let the Anxi Governor's Mansion directly send troops to conquer Silla.

However, at the court meeting today, the Silla envoys came to plead guilty, and brought a lot of gold and silver, luminous pearls, and thousand-year-old wild ginseng. My Tang Dynasty should have the style of a great country. I also said that the land of Goguryeo was originally a place of bitter cold. It is useless for me to come to the Tang Dynasty. It is better to be a favor and give it to Silla. In short, these civil servants are extraordinarily generous. Anyway, it is a barren land. The land, and the land does not belong to their family.

Li Shimin still feels unhappy. If he was young, he might have thought similarly to civil servants, but now that he is older, he knows that his time is running out. He wants to hand over a stable Tang Dynasty to Li Zhi, but from the behavior of Silla, he can see that they are restless, just like Gaochang and Tuyuhun back then.

After the morning court ended that day, Li Shimin verbally summoned Li Hao to the palace for an audience. Li Hao was still lazy in the villa in Lantian. After receiving the summons, he immediately came to Chang'an to meet Li Shimin in the Ganlu Palace.

Now it is full spring, when the spring scene is just right, Li Shimin invited Li Hao to visit the garden, Li Hao readily agreed, the two monarchs and his ministers strolled in the garden, Xu Lian and all the guards followed from a distance, not daring to listen to them people talking.

"Your Majesty, forgive me for speaking bluntly, Your Majesty seems to have something on his mind today." Li Hao suddenly said this.

Li Shimin stopped, looked at Li Hao in surprise and asked, "How did you find out?"

Li Hao laughed and said: "Your Majesty always summons ministers for anything, and summoning ministers is for important matters."

"You brat's thoughts..." Li Shimin said the words, and suddenly realized that Li Hao is no longer a brat. Li Hao is already in his 30s, his hair is almost half white, but his face is still so tender , looks similar, no wonder I always can't help calling him a brat.

Li Shimin changed his words: "Since you are so smart, you might as well guess again, why did I seek you today?"

Li Hao rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "If your guess is correct, your Majesty's summoning should be for the affairs of Silla."

"That's right." Li Shimin sighed and asked, "Shikuang, what do you think of Silla's actions?"

Li Haodao: "Your Majesty, people who are not of our race must have a different heart. Silla will eventually follow in the footsteps of Goguryeo, because they are people of the same clan, just like monks and bald men, not much different."

"Look at what you bastard said." Li Shimin scolded with a smile, "How can there be no difference between a monk and a bald man?"

Li Hao said with a smile: "Your Majesty can understand what I mean, and don't care about these details."

Li Shimin sighed, and said slowly: "Your thinking is similar to mine, Silla is unreliable."

"That's true." Li Hao said, "Although Silla surrendered to Tang Dynasty, it also surrendered to Wa Kingdom. Baekje was wiped out by chance. Now Silla has unified the Liaodong Peninsula and is growing stronger. In less than ten years, it will become another Goguryeo. At that time, it will become a huge threat to the Tang Dynasty in the northeast. Even if the threat is not Going to Datang will make Datang unbearable, His Majesty needs to make a decision early."

"Why don't I want to." Li Shimin sighed louder, and said helplessly, "But although Silla made a mistake this time, their actions were too fast. Before I sent troops, they came to plead guilty. Interceding for Silla, how can I send troops?"

Li Hao rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's better to leave this matter to the minister. If the minister can make all the ministers hate Silla in one or two years, I wish I could punish him sooner."

"Oh?" Li Shimin looked at Li Hao with surprise and asked, "What trick do you have?"

Li Hao chuckled, and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me, this trick can't be said, it won't work if it is said."

"Just keep it up." Li Shimin said with a laugh, "Okay, you go ahead and do it. Silla's national strength is still weak, and it's not a good thing. It's just right to wipe them out as soon as possible."

Li Hao raised his body and bowed: "I will definitely fulfill my mission."

When Li Hao returned to Lantian Villa, it was already evening. Li Hao went directly to the southern courtyard of the villa. There were two people living in this courtyard, Pei Miao and Liu Xuanji. Who was Liu Xuanji? After Wa returned, he changed his name to Liu Xuanji. From then on, Liu Xuanji, the trickster and abductee, seemed to be dead, and the one alive was Liu Xuanji who had made contributions to the nation.

After Liu Xuanji experienced some major events, his mentality also changed, and his three outlooks became extremely correct. He changed his bad habits in the past and worshiped Pei Miao as his teacher. Here, he learned Qimen Dunjia from Pei Miao every day, easy to manage feng shui, and became a An outsider, he may indeed have talent in this area. Although it is only a few short years, he has made great progress.

Liu Xuanji and Pei Miao had just had dinner, and Liu Xuanji was playing with the little monkey in the yard, when the little monkey suddenly yelled and rushed towards the gate of the yard, and then saw Li Hao striding in, the little monkey slid He just wanted to jump on Li Hao and squat on Li Hao's shoulders.

Li Hao hugged him and said with a smile: "Good boy, Wukong, you've grown up now, you can't stand on my shoulders anymore."

Wukong grinned his teeth to express his disapproval. Li Hao had no choice but to lift him up and put him on his shoulder. Wukong stepped on Li Hao's shoulder and was still bouncing on it. He was so happy. Li Hao could only smack his lips helplessly. Yes, let it go.

Liu Xuanji stepped forward to salute Li Hao, Pei Miao also came out of the house when he heard the voice, and asked with a smile: "Junior brother, why come to my place when you have time?"

Li Hao said: "I have something to look for Liu Xuanji this time."

Liu Xuanji was taken aback when he heard the words, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Master Uncle has any orders, just tell me, Xuanji will never refuse."

"Come on, sit down first." Li Hao patted Wukong's feet, and Wukong immediately jumped off.

Then the three of them sat down around the stone table, and Wukong obediently carried a teapot to pour tea for them. , for fear of being frightened.

"Wukong is really getting more and more intelligent." Li Hao picked up his teacup and sighed with a smile.

Pei Miao took a sip from the teacup and said, "It must be as you said, how to put it, oh, mutation, you become stronger, and it becomes smarter and spiritual."

Li Hao nodded in agreement. After all, his memory has improved after time travelling, and the monkey has become spiritual, which is normal.

Liu Xuanji said at this time: "Uncle Shi, tell me, there is something you want to tell me."

Li Hao smiled and said: "Same as the last mission, you need to go to a different country, but this time it's not the Wa country."

"Oh?" Liu Xuanji asked, "Where are you going this time?"

Li Hao smiled slightly: "Xilla."

Liu Xuanji murmured: "Xilla, this is no stranger, I wonder if there is any mission to go to Xinluo this time?"

Li Haodao: "Jin Chunqiu, the lord of Silla, acted recklessly and took away the Goguryeo territory that my Tang Dynasty had just conquered. The emperor wanted to send troops to destroy them, but Jin Chunqiu was very cunning, so he immediately sent envoys to plead guilty. All the ministers excused Silla, which made His Majesty very embarrassed."

Hearing this, Liu Xuanji thought for a while, then frowned and asked, "What does Uncle Master want me to do?"

Li Hao waved at him: "Come here with your ears."

Pei Miao suddenly became unhappy, and pretended to be angry: "Why, what plan can't you let me listen to it?"

Li Hao said with a hippie smile: "Brother, you don't understand this, it's not that you are not allowed to listen, it's because of the conspiracy and tricks that you have to say this to feel it and to be excited!"

Pei Miao's expression became very exciting in an instant. Although he was already very familiar with his younger brother's funny personality, sometimes Li Hao's funny comparison really made him a little difficult to resist.
